Serves 10
Ready in 2 hours
Ingredients
  • 125g butter
  • 100g soft brown sugar
  • 125g golden syrup
  • 100g black treacle
  • 50g Asda Ginger Preserve
  • 125g plain flour
  • 100g self-raising flour
  • 1 level tsp ground ginger
  • 1 level tsp mixed spice
  • ½ level tsp bicarbonate of soda
  • 2 large free-range eggs
  • 125ml milk
Method
1 Preheat the oven to 160C/140C Fan/Gas 3. Line a 2lb loaf tin with baking paper. Put the butter, sugar, syrup, treacle and ginger preserve in a pan and heat gently, stirring, until the butter melts. Pour into a bowl and leave until just warm.

2 In another bowl, sift together the plain and self-raising flour, ground ginger, mixed spice and bicarbonate of soda. Put the eggs and milk into a separate bowl and whisk with a fork.

3 Mix all ingredients together and pour into the loaf tin. Ask an adult to put it in the oven and bake for 1 hour and 15 minutes or until a skewer inserted in the cake comes out clean. Cool on a wire rack.
